You can’t resist her. She’s in your bones. She is your marrow // Weezer.

Swirling star trails grace the night sky at Pinnacles National Park in California, the nation’s 59th and newest national park. 23 million years ago, volcanoes erupted, flowed and slid to form the park’s towering rock spires and rare talus caves that you can hike through today. Photographer Aron Cooperman journeyed 45 minutes through a cave to reach Bear Gulch Reservoir in time to capture this spellbinding scene. Photo courtesy of Aron Cooperman.

We own this shit. All of it.

We own this shit. All of it. All of us. And it isn’t going to get better until we all make it better. I don’t know how. But I know no one looking back at this 200 years from now are going to say we were helpless. We created this. The first step towards getting rid of it is to make the fear go away.

- There is an overwhelming probability that the black guy walking down the street towards you is not going to even think about mugging you or hurting you in any way.

- There is an overwhelming probability that the police officer who is pulling you over is going to do you no harm.

- There is an overwhelming probably that the Muslim who just boarded your plane is interested only in getting to their destination.

There is an overwhelming probability that the people who live, work, eat, drink around you every day only want to go on living their lives.

Fear is natural. There are a lot of assholes on the planet. And there are systematic factors that have to be changed that make it no coincidence that these same crap things seemingly happen again and again and again and nothing ever changes. There’s ample reason to feel afraid. For yourself, your family, your world. But if we can’t get past that fear, there isn’t a chance in hell things can eventually get better.

We own this shit. We are responsible for fixing it. We can’t be afraid.

What’s Up for June 2016?

What’s Up for June? Saturn at its best! Plus, good views of Mars, Jupiter and Jupiter’s moons continue from dusk to dawn.

You don’t have to stay up late to see Jupiter, Mars and Saturn this month, because they’re all visible soon after sunset. Jupiter is the brightest of the three, visible in the western sky all evening.

The four Galilean moons are easily visible in binoculars or telescopes. If you think you’re seeing 5 moons on June 10th, you’re not. One of them is a distant star in the constellation Leo.

For telescope viewers, the time near Mars’ closest approach to Earth, May 30th this year, is the best time to try to see the two moons of Mars: Phobos and Deimos. It takes patience, very steady skies and good charts! Mars is still large and bright in early June, but it fades as speedy Earth, in its shorter orbit around the sun, passes it.

Saturn has been close to Mars recently. This month Saturn reaches opposition, when Saturn, Earth and the sun are in a straight line with Earth in the middle, providing the best and closest views of the ringed beauty and several of its moons. You’ll be able to make out cloud bands on Saturn, in delicate shades of cream and butterscotch. They’re fainter than the bands of Jupiter. Through a telescope you’ll see Saturn’s rings tilted about as wide as they get: 26 degrees.

You’ll also have a ring-side view of the Cassini division, discovered by Giovanni Domenico Cassini, namesake of our Cassini spacecraft, orbiting Saturn since 2004 and continuing through September 2017. When you look at Saturn through a telescope, you can’t help but see several of its 4 brightest moons, and maybe more. If you just see one, that’s Titan, 50% larger than our own moon. A telescope can also reveal more moons, like Saturn’s two-colored moon Iapetus. It takes 3 months to orbit Saturn, and it’s fairly easy to see.

There’s a bright comet visible this month, Comet PanSTARRS. It’s best seen from the southern hemisphere, but it’s also visible from the U.S. low in the morning sky. Comet PanSTARRS can be seen through a telescope near the beautiful Helix Nebula on June 4, but it is visible all month.
